Randall Wheelhead

Recommended Posts

Hi all.

I'm back into throwing after 30 years since college.

Just got a Randall electric but it's missing the wheel head.

Are there easy replacements or will I end up modifying another?

The tapered shaft looks easy to accommodate with the help of the machine shop if I get the right alternative to start with.

Tapering to keep it level and true is nothing I'd attempt without the engineering guys.

Any suggestions please?

I think you need to have wheel head machined to that taper to work-You may find a whole other kick wheel is cheaper than this buying a wheel head and machining it.

Put the motorized part on another used kick wheel-these kick wheels are free to low cost as most do not want the big lunky things anymore.They pop up on crags list for low $ or haul away.

You could post looking for a randall wheel head on potters barter site on Yahoo and see what turns up?
